Another way that I double up is that I often double recipes – especially of soups or casseroles, but even just chicken thighs (my favorite).
I can freeze the other half if appropriate and in a couple of weeks bust this “new” old meal out again. I try and cook enough for two nights – even if I don’t double the recipe. Two nights of chicken, two nights of chili, whatever – it’s a twofer. Two meals and only one night of cooking. My husband is usually so pleased that we have a cooked meal and not cereal or something that he is great with this possibly monotonous eating schedule.
